From €950

Who it is for

For operators with traffic, bookings, or ad spend who need an upgrade

The audit is for tour operators, excursion companies, activity providers, and other booking-based businesses where the website already plays a real commercial role.

It is especially useful when direct bookings feel weaker than they should, tracking is unclear, mobile booking feels clunky, review/trust signals are underused, or OTA dependency is becoming expensive.

What the audit checks

Technicalities behind a booking path

01

Speed

Page performance, mobile friction, and obvious load-time issues that can interrupt intent.

02

Mobile flow

How easily a visitor can move from a tour page to a confident booking action.

03

Tour pages

Structure, CTA visibility, booking buttons, and the information needed before purchase.

04

SEO and schema

Metadata, structured data opportunities, internal context, and review data where appropriate.

05

Tracking

GA4, GTM, conversion tracking, booking events, and measurement sanity checks.

06

Ads quality

Landing page issues that may weaken paid traffic performance or lead quality.

07

Review/trust workflow

Whether first-party review collection, review display, or booking-system-connected review collection could support stronger on-site trust signals.

How it works

Four steps to a comprehensible report

01

Intake

You share the website, booking system, key concerns, and any access needed for tracking review.

02

Review

The website is checked across speed, mobile flow, SEO/schema, tracking, reviews, page clarity, and booking friction.

03

Priorities

Findings are turned into prioritized action steps with likely impact, effort, and risk.

04

You receive

Written findings covering the full scope and the prioritized action steps. Further collaboration will also be discussed.

What to keep in mind

What is excluded from the Audit?

The audit is scoped for diagnosis and prioritization, not implementation. These items are out of scope:

  • Implementation work unless a separate Fix Sprint is agreed
  • Full website redesign or rebuild as these are offered separately. The audit shows first whether one is even needed
  • Custom booking system rebuild
  • Legal or compliance certification for review/schema implementation
  • Ad campaign creation or management
  • Unlimited revisions or ongoing support
  • Emergency or out-of-hours support

FAQ

Before your request

Can this lead to implementation?

Yes. The audit can lead to a Direct Booking Fix Sprint if there are clear, agreed issues worth fixing and the implementation scope is contained. Common sprint modules can include speed fixes, tracking cleanup, schema/SEO cleanup, CTA and page improvements, review/trust workflow setup, or booking path improvements.

Is this only for large tour operators?

No, but it is most useful when the website already gets traffic, bookings, ad spend, or commercial attention. If there is no traffic yet, strategy and acquisition may need to come first.

Will you need access to analytics?

Some checks can be done without access. Tracking and conversion findings are more useful when GA4, GTM, Search Console, booking system, or ad account context is available.

Will this audit guarantee more direct bookings?

No. The audit identifies likely blockers and prioritizes fixes. Direct-booking results depend on traffic quality, offer, pricing, seasonality, operations, and the fixes that are actually implemented.
